Falcon Coolrunner rev c rgh 2 Slow boot HELP!

[teknogod17]

Ok so I have a falcon I just rgh v2 and It takes along time to boot. I used all default wires and tried all settings in as many combos I I could think of. I used Timing A B C D and tried falcon flash but still does not change. I saw some people use. A cap and resister or something like that on the cpu rst and it seams to work for everyone. But I dont know what types of caps/resisters to use. Also is there any other Thing I could try.

I've heard falcons on rgh 2 with rev c can be a pain in the ass. Best you could replace the rev c for a r-jtag (if you can get a hold on one) or wait for the new CR4 that will come out.

if that doesn't satisfies you, complete the rgh template in the sticky section.

Yes falcon motherboard are known to eather not work with RGH2 or just have really slow boot times when you get them to work on RGH2. Theres nothing that can be done about this. The only way to increase or decrease boot times for that matter is eather remove the RGH2 and install the R-JTAG kit or wait for the CR4 XL and install that.

remove c8 on coolrunner and switch to slim/post some pics of soldering and chip

use the 50 cm slim wire on cpu reset with 10 ohm resistor >>> flash the coolrunner with time b file ..... it succeded with me on 5 falcons ... boot under 2 min

ive done several falcons over the last few weeks and have found that with 40-50cm blue wire to D, switch set to slim and timing file B i get decent results most boots under 1 min.
